I do. Bad Pearl actually started as a doodle from Lauren Zuke. Turns out she's canon.

Oh really when?

Sheena is a good name for her. (It's also surprisingly close to my name... surprised Closer to my aunt's name, though.)

When we're done, there won't be anything left.

Man, Last One Out Of Beach City is one of those episodes I'll never get tired of watching. I never thought I'd see a show where a girl has a crush on, flirts with, and gets the number of another girl.

I'm so glad kids will be able to watch this and actually feel normal about who they like.

From "calling her “sheena” in my head"...maybe she really won't be recurring. We do have a ton of characters who still need to be brought back and focused on already.

Loves feel-good animation a whole lot.

At the very least I think she'll appear here and there. Crowd shots, seeing Pearl come home from hanging out with her, stuff like that.

Sort of like how Nanafue or Peedee or any other Beach City resident just pops up here and there.

"Sheena" makes me think of the girl from Bloody Roar who could turn into a leopard. *swoon*

[up][up][up]A ton? This show doesn't have that many one-offs...I think Mystery Woman would be the second.

She'll be one for now.

I'll be honest, I doubt we'll be seeing Shawna (that's my guess for her name, mostly for the Ferris Bueller reference) again.

Isn't there a trope for a character who exists only to give someone else Character Development? If there is, then Shawna is definitely that.

She's not thinking about Rose. She's thinking about this cool mystery woman with awesome hair. She strikes up a conversation with S, and from what we saw, never treated S like a Replacement Goldfish. They flirted, she got S to laugh, and she got her number. She's not thinking about Rose anymore, and that's a very good thing.

The relationship overall would probably be better for Pearl too. She can approach cool mystery woman on more of an equal basis which I don't think she would ever be able to do with Rose

This is an episode that just left me feeling happy for the characters. Whether it be Greg having a social life going on, Pearl stepping out of her comfort zone and socializing or Steven and Amethyst basically being two kids cheering their mom on as she attempts to get back into the dating scene. It was all so sweet.

Also I think the trope your looking for is Satellite character.

Another way it'll grow her is that any relationship with a human she has will inevitably lead to them confronting her about her acting superior / not treating humans as equals. Like even in this episode,Pearl felt the need to mention they should thank her for a war they were never alive to see or that they can even really read about.Even though it's true being confronted about it would make her realize she's acting condescending / snooty.

I've seen Punk Diamond as a nickname for her.

It's not the worst nickname, I'll give it that.

Writing out Mystery Girl S makes it sound like the title of some 90s cyber punk anime.
